4153 still in TWM livery looking very tired and patched up must be the next candidate for refurb I would have thought...

It's the most tatty Trident at BC I would've said. Isn't there paint missing from when they removed branding from it? If I'm right in thinking it had that awful transitional branding and an overall side advert?

Yes, it was 14 branded at one time, it had a rear ad and I think a side ad too. Also had a front end repair from an accident.

And after the repair the front was painted with a fresh lick of TWM livery.. I remember that!

Personally, I have mixed emotions about it. They suit it perfectly! As does the Omnilinks, but I do think that if NXWM had more, they could retain one or two in the original livery... But I'd also agree with a previous statement. Had they put Brian Robinsons' name at the front of the bus. It would've presented the bus a very well suited livery. In all honesty, I love the scania fleet. But it does seem a bit too small at the back of the bus, downstairs... :/

It has been back for a couple of weeks now. 4296 is one to look for.
